Default It's impossible to win!

So last week I got a huge nail in one of my rear re050s. Luckily I have a 2nd set of wheels with falken azenis that I cone dodge on. I put those on and take the nailed wheel to discount. As it turns out the hole is too close to the sidewall and it can't be fixed. I figure what the heck those tires are pretty worn anyway so I order a new set of RE01R's for that set of wheels. They should be here later this week. So today I'm driving on the Azenis and the car starts to wander on the road. I get home and check the tire pressures and I have a leak in one of my rears on this set of tires!!!! Hopefully this one can be patched. Last thing I want to do is buy 2 new rear azenis right after paying for a whole new set of RE01Rs. Back to discount tire tomorrow.

Moral of the story. Blah!!!!!

You are right! Both sets of my wheels have street tires. I still need another set with a set of NT01s for track day
